Silverstar: More than a Ski Resort
Length -
Think of SilverStar as a big mountain with a small-town feel. A colourful mid-mountain village offers true ski-in/ski-out access to the slopes. Canada’s first all-inclusive lift ticket provides access to numerous activities—including 55 kilometres (34 miles) of stellar Nordic trails—for one price.
With four distinct mountain faces and 132 runs, SilverStar’s progressive terrain is ideal for learning. For the more adventurous, the back side of the mountain offers an uncrowded paradise of over 1,328 hectares (3,282 acres) of steep and deep, black and double-black runs.

- Mar 15, 2020: “Recently purchased by a crappy US company called POWDR. They closed the resort without notice on the first day of spring break. Refused to provide any compensation for the 3 weeks lost on our passes. Ordered all staff off of the mountain within the week while misleading the public that they intended to reopen after 1 week. I wouldnt risk booking a vacation here to have POWDR close and not provide compensation. Seriously book with SunPeaks or BigWhite, they value their customers and treat them better than SilverStar does.” 0
- Mar 8, 2020: “I absolutely LOVED this mountain. We are a family of 5. I'm not the best skier whereas the rest of my family are! i was worried i wouldn't get around the mountain but it is absolutely wonderful. I would definitely go back to this resort. Not a lot of places on the mountain to go to eat etc but that was also the charm of the mountain.” 1
- Mar 7, 2020: “We had a great time at Silver Star. Perfect size resort. Great downhill runs, good variety. Excellent xc skiing with link to Sovereign. Amazingly groomed. The ski hosts were fantastic (Robert, Roy, Mike). Great stay at Campbell House (vacation rental). Walkable through parking lot to skiing. Just down the path to skating and tubing, as well as lower ski area.” 2
